Заглянув в список номинантов, я искала чего бы посмотреть и увидела этот фильм.
Я знала про него, но почему-то ранее не обращала на него особого внимания. А зря.
Фильм замечательный !!! Все актеры потрясающие!



The film was shot in 36 days.

Real-life murderer Ed Gein inspired the character Norman Bates in the original Robert Bloch novel 'Psycho';
Gein also inspired the character of Jame Gumb (Buffalo Bill) in Thomas Harris' novel 'The Silence of the Lambs'
which featured Anthony Hopkins in the film version.

Anthony Hopkins is one of a number of several top British and American actors who actively pursued the role of Alfred Hitchcock.

Anthony Hopkins actually met Alfred Hitchcock when he was younger.
Hopkins was accompanied by his agent who introduced him to Hitchcock in a restaurant.

In the end scene, a crow lands on Hitch's shoulder, indicating that his next project will be The Birds.
That film, and his relationship/obsession with leading lady Tippi Hedren were the basis for another film about Hitchcock,
The Girl, broadcast this same year.
